>>18274977I think I would have tolerated all that shit from that picture had it not been surrounded by the unholy main event trifecta that was babyface Seethe Tarpins at the peak of his geekdom, Becky's The Man run that got botched after an initially promising start, and goddamned ubermensch booking Roman Reigns with his endless rematches with Brock and whoever else. The latter is what really killed off my interest in following the shows on a regular basis.
It was basically 5-6 hours of tv that were 80% dull as shit, with a 20% chance of witnessing some surreal decision making. Add to it the continuosly lost in the shuffle NXT callups, and you have very little to get out of watching Raw or Smackdown. It's amazing that the company made it out of that period without any debilitating losses.
